Checkr, a technology company aiming to build a fairer future through its products and services, has launched its philanthropic group, Checkr.org. The organization's mission is to create opportunities for all by funding initiatives that promote fair chance hiring, which can help employers overcome barriers to diversity in the workplace. By providing education, best practices, and resources, Checkr.org aims to make the hiring process more inclusive, allowing a wider range of candidates to be considered for employment. The company has already seen significant benefits from its own fair chance talent programs, with workers having high retention rates and promotion rates. With the goal of expanding this initiative nationwide, Checkr.org will focus on San Francisco, Denver, and Orlando before scaling up across the country. The organization's efforts are led by Ken Oliver, a former inmate who has dedicated his life to fighting discrimination against those with criminal convictions, and aims to make meaningful change in the hiring process and beyond.
